The colored flush-to-the-border design of the 1969 Topps Football low-number series makes this set particularly challenging to collect in extremely high grade. This classic set features all the stars of the era, including rookie cards of Hall of Famer Larry Csonka and Brian Piccolo, and stars such as Johnny Unitas, Joe Namath, Dick Butkus, Bart Starr, and Fran Tarkenton. Condition is 34% Nr/Mt to Nr/Mt-Mt, 49% Ex to Ex-Mt, and 17% Vg to Vg-Ex (including 3% lesser). Keys: #25 Unitas (Ex-Mt), 26 Piccolo RC (Ex+), 51 Sayers (miscut left edge, otherwise Ex-Mt), 100 Namath (Ex-Mt), 120 Csonka RC (Ex-Mt), 139 Butkus (95/5 L/R, otherwise Ex-Mt), 150 Tarkenton (Ex), 161 Griese (75/25 L/R, otherwise Nr/Mt), and 215 Starr (Gd+). This is an attractive mid- to high-grade complete set of this classic 1960s Topps football issue. Total: 263 cards.
